For too long music advocacy has leaned mainly on research-based justifications. Let’s get practical.
Let’s do the things necessary and helpful in creating a school, community, and nation that couldn’t imagine being without SCHOOL MUSIC.
Part of advocacy is being present—saying “yes”…to a parade, bringing small ensembles around the community, or touring elementary choirs during the holidays.
